🎄It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas... Under the Microscope!🔬 Why buy Christmas trees when you can "grow" one using micropatterning ( Alvéole ) and Allen Institute 's cells with LaminB1 "ornaments"? Happy #FluorescenceFriday !

How convenient - this tree already comes with ornaments! Get into the holiday spirit with this beautiful cell tree by Özge Özgüç from @ibecbarcelona. This beautiful fusion of science and art was made using our Lamin B1 stem cell line - complete with pink nuclei ornaments!

Özge Özgüç (Özge Özgüç), investigadora de l'#IBEC, ha creat un arbre de Nadal amb una colònia cel·lular!🎄 🔬Ha guiat el creixement de les cèl·lules amb micropatrons triangulars, i els adorns són els nuclis cel·lulars (en rosa). 🧬Finalment, ha marcat el còrtex cel·lular en verd!

No need for explosives, this year's firework show is cell-powered! 🔬💥 Check out the "fireworks" created by cells pulling on the substrate and displacing tiny beads, visualized with #3DTFM ! 🎇 Let’s make 2025 explosive with science! 👩‍🔬🎉 #HappyNewYear

Stop doing mechanobiology

We have a new #stopdoing #science meme, courtesy of Miquel Miquel Bosch Padrós from the Xavier Trepat lab. Late for #mechanobiology Monday, but here to stay on your lab meme boards forever.

It is #FluorescenceFriday! Perfectly suited for Valentine’s Day—a 2-cell stage mouse embryo where actin staining created a heart-shaped negative space around its nucleus🔬. Captured it 4 years ago, but still one of my favorites for this time of year ❣️

to buckle or not to buckle that is the question🤔 So great to see this work out!! Big congrats to Nimesh Chahare and the team!!👏

Have you ever thought about inflating tissues? Or maybe quickly deflating those inflated tissues? New #EpithelialMechanics pre-print: doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… 🧵with pressure control, multiscale buckling, patterned wrinkling
